13

Time Required: 10 minutes
Objective: Recover a file from backup.
Description: You have backed up your server with the Windows Server Backup program.
Because you have just started using this program, you want to run through the process of restor-
ing files. You recover a test user's profile folder after deleting the profile.
1. Log on to ServerXX as Administrator, if necessary.
2. Open an Explorer window and navigate to the C:\Users folder. Click the salesperson1 folder
and press Delete . In the Delete Folder message box, click Yes . Close Windows Explorer.
3. If necessary, open Server Manager, click to expand the Storage node in the left pane, and
then click Windows Server Backup .
4. Click Recover in the Actions pane to start the Recovery Wizard. In the Getting started
window, verify that the This server (ServerXX) option button is selected, and then click Next .
5. In the Select backup date window, because you have created only one backup, it should
already be selected. Click Next .
6. In the Select recovery type window, make sure the Files and folders option is selected, and
then click Next .
7. In the Select items to recover window, under Available items, click to expand ServerXX ,
Local disk (C:) , and Users , and then click the salesperson1 folder. All files and subfolders are
listed in the right pane (see Figure 13-5). Click Next .
